Satellite A30 (PSA30E - 1896C-EN) what wireless card

Hi all
Having rebiult my A30, with your help, I'm looking to install a wireless card. The user manual says: "Mini-PCI card. But does not specify the size (and yet some providers seem to have different sizes for the mini-PCI). Furthermore, by reading the existing threads, they seem to suggest keeping an eye on "n" standard (forthcoming).

Can you describe the key points that I have to watch out for when buying this wireless card for this laptop, please?

With gratitude, Robin

> User manual says: "Mini-PCI card. But does not specify the size (and yet some providers seem to have different sizes for the mini-PCI).

Mini-PCI slot is a standard interface supported by all hardware manufacturers.
There are no sizes different mini-PCI! There could be a mini-PCI or PCI slot.
However, the user above posted a WLan card reference number. I recommend googoling for this issue in order to find the right wireless network card.

  • Satellite A30 - I want an internal WiFi card

    Hello

    I am looking for a mini wifi internal card for my laptop A30, I know its old, but I just want to do, can anyone recommend a good market to get?
    EBay is an option?

    Can I use any internal mini wifi card or?

    Thank you

    Hello!

    Have you checked if you have a WiFi switch on your laptop? If you have such a change, you can buy and use an internal WiFi card.

    You must use a WiFi card that supports the 802. 11b standard, for example Intel.

    Of course you can search on eBay and a map of second hand too because some Satellite A30 was shipped with the wireless card.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A30 PSA30E - BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive

    Hi all
    I have a Satellite A30 (PSA30E) and I start the computer. When I enter the BIOS it does not recognize the hard drive.
    Does anyone no what I can do?
    Is it possible to restore the BIOS?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You replaced the HARD drive by a new one or the BIOS don't recognize the old HDD?

    Usually if the laptop is not able to start and that the BIOS does not see the old HDD then I guess that the HARD drive is faulty.
    If the BIOS doesn't recognize the inserted new HARD drive and then either you ve bought is not compatible, or the size of the HARD drive is just too big.

    Please provide more info. You see error messages?

  • What wireless card I have in my Satellite A40

    Hi all

    I got a Toshiba Satalite Pro A 40 a friend (PSA45E)

    Windows XP has been pretty slow I decided to reinstall the OS and now have a problem to install the wireless card

    For the moment, I have Windows XP (without Service Pack, which should be the first version that was on sale, I guess) but can't install the wireless network adapter

    I tried several times to toggle the map with the FN key, but Windows does not. Also the Device Manager does not list any unknown device or wireless card. So I do not know who the card is now installed

    I'm very sure I saw some SSID with the old windows before you install the new Windows

    now I'm wondiring if I can download recovery CD from the WEB or find a free software that can read the material on a PC, even if the drivers are missing, to see if the card responds.

    Also, I noticed that he was in the back of the computer laptop and the MAC on the network card on a sticker. Tosiba does not have a sticket with the WLAN MAC on the back?

    Where would I be able to find a manual to physically locate the mini-pci card?

    Thank you
    Chris

    Hi Polly

    I think you have the wrong of my knowledge the A40 Satellite Pro does not support the wireless network card. There is no installed wireless network card and that's why you find no WLan MAC address sticker at the bottom of the unit.

    The Satellite Pro A40 can't be improved with a wireless network card internal minPCI because as much as I know the WLan antenna is not available.

    If you want to use the Wlan then I would recommend as an external option, it could be an external USB WiFi key.

  • Satellite A30-PSA30E Intel 2200BG wireless problem

    Hello
    I bought the new wireless card intel 2200BG miniPCI for my Toshiba laptop. I have card connected to the miniPCI slot free and both cables are connected as well.
    My problem is that this hardware switch on the right side of my laptop does not work (no led light). The original Intel software is posting I have material activate this card. Can you help me please?

    Hi Michael

    I hope that you have connected the card properly. The white cable must be connected to the HAND and a black to the power supply please check if the card is recognized and properly installed. The status is displayed in the Device Manager. The wireless adapter should appear under network adapters.

  • No power to Satellite A30 PSA30E

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A30 (part No. = PSA30E-00E5-EN) laptop and recently when plugged in, the battery is not, in fact he tell Chargers.

    When the laptop is turned off, if you plug the battery icon orange lights and charges of battery, but when you start the laptop to halfway through start orange icon battery turns off and the battery won't charge.

    If you start the laptop just using the battery once it is in place and ongoing enforcement if you plug the nothing happening for example the battery charge orange icon does not illuminate.

    The power is always on the laptop the screen stays on its setting of intensity, but the laptop turns off when the battery runs down to 0%.

    I removed the battery and tried power the laptop just using the power grid, but the laptop does not turn on.

    I got a new power adapter and it does not solve the problem and I even bought a new battery for your laptop but the problem still exists

    The only thing I found on the internet is that the connector where the connector plug AC power adapter will has known problems, but I can't find anyone who has a solution on how to fix it.

    Any ideas how to solve all the other ideas what wrong?

    > I have a new power adapter and it does not solve the problem and I even bought a new battery for your laptop but the problem still exists

    If the new battery and new AC adapter didn't solve this problem, then I think his untimely motherboard.
    Eventually it s power supply electronic malfunction or a similar problem.

    I doubt that you can remedy. In this case (in the worst case) the motherboard needs to be replaced and it would be a costly affair.

    What to say to boyfriend. I think that you could get in touch with the local ASP in order to test the motherboard or related parts.
    Then you should get more details abut the question and what parts are affected.

    If it is the battery which batteries would be compatible with my laptop to replace and how do 2nd hand/battery cost these days for my laptop?

    My battery model number = PA3250U-1BRS
    K000002280

    I found a battery on a site that resembles a Toshiba Satellite A35 (don't remember if it's A30 or Pro A30) - looking at the Toshiba Satellite A35, it's the same as my Toshiba Satellite A30 it would be compatible?

    Thanks for your time...

    Hello

    Eventually it s a battery but problem is just a suggestion.
    I do not recommend buying a second hand battery because second hand battery will discharge a lot faster.
    In my opinion, you should buy a new one.

    I googled a little bit for PA3250U-1BRS and found a few deals online, it seems that you can get it for 50-60 euros

    Regarding the battery A35.
    I think that it should be compatible with your laptop. The A35 is a Toshiba US series (A30 is the European model) and it of very similar to A30.

  • Satellite L30 - how to open the Wireless card slot to upgrade the Wlan card

    Y at - it a special way to open the card slot on a Satellite L30 wireless or should I just use a USB adapter wireless... because the crack is there but I can't open it and USB we're boring.

    Thanks for the help...

    GMC

    There is no special way. Just 2 screws...
    So, if you have a wireless mini-pci network card, then you can open the lid, insert it and use it. But be sure to unscrew the screw more than necessary. :)

    And if you´re not able to open it, then you will need to use your boring usb adapter. ;)

  • Satellite A30 PSA30E suddenly turned off

    My A30 satellite seems to work ok as long as the air can move freely under the fans. When the power is low and you plug it in, it turns off after about 5 minutes. You must charge the battery and remove the sector so that it works without going out suddenly while you're busy using it. All solutions? or the reasons why. Did the last update of the BIOS.

    Hey guys,.

    Maybe you should do the following:

    Take a can compressed air to an electronic market, blast, some air trough the vents of your laptop and try if your machines are chrashing... sometimes simply it s one with cpu clobbed dust fan and and a clobbed cooling system, causing problems like yours.

    It s worth a try...
